Expand description
write()
attempts to write nbyte
of data to the object referenced by the
descriptor fd
from a buffer. writev()
performs the same
action, but gathers the output data from the iovcnt
buffers specified by the
members of the iov array: iov[0], iov[1], ..., iov[iovcnt-1]
.
struct iovec {
char *iov_base; /* Base address. */
size_t iov_len; /* Length. */
};
Each iovec
entry specifies the base address and length of an area in memory from
which data should be written. writev()
will always write a
complete area before proceeding to the next.
